[00:25.74]"I was young once, yes I was", said the mother to the son
[00:32.77]I was younger than you now
[00:36.66]Come close, I'll tell you how it happened
[00:41.88]🎵
[00:55.40]Well, this is a photograph of me on my front lawn
[01:03.08]A window to the past, of me in a corsage, going to Prom
[01:14.04]Going to Prom
[01:17.86]Going to Prom
[01:20.52]🎵
[01:32.70]And this is a photograph of me in my first home
[01:40.28]Never thought that I could call a place my own
[01:47.28]There's nothing wrong here, there's nothing wrong, dear
[01:54.61]There's nothing wrong with me (ooh-ooh-ooh)
[02:01.57](Ooh-ooh) with me
[02:04.90](Ooh-ooh-ooh) with me
[02:08.75](Ooh-ooh)
[02:10.25]And this is a photograph of me with my first born
[02:17.65]His eyes your same eyes
[02:21.27]His soul is your same soul
[02:25.07]Screaming at life into the light
[02:28.44]Gasping for breath 'til there's nothing left
[02:32.38]Here is your body, here is your chest
[02:36.17]Here is your hunger, here is my breast
[02:40.19]"I was young once, yes I was", said the mother to the son
[02:47.74]I was younger than you now
[02:51.54]Can someone tell me how it happened?
[02:57.78]🎵
[03:02.89]And why did it happen to me?
[03:10.37]And it's gonna happen to you
[03:14.13]And what's gonna happen to you?
[03:17.97]Babe, when it happens to you
[03:21.53]What's gonna happen to you?
